In a strong rebuttal to swirling headlines, former President Donald Trump has denied reports claiming he intends to oust Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell if he returns to office in 2025. ๐ฐโ
Calling the rumors โFalse Talk,โ Trump took to Truth Social to slam what he described as another mainstream media fabrication. โI never said Iโd fire Powell,โ he wrote. โMore fake news from people who canโt get enough of making things up.โ ๐ฃ๏ธ๐
Speculation ignited after reports suggested Trump was frustrated with Powellโs leadership, especially around interest rate hikes and inflation. ๐๐ธ But insiders close to the Trump camp now insist heโs focused on restoring economic strength, not stirring drama in the Fed. ๐บ๐ธ๐ช
This comes as the economy remains a top issue for 2024 voters. Trumpโs denial may help calm Wall Street nerves, at least for now. ๐ง ๐๐
Bottom line? Trump says the mediaโs narrative is fiction โ and Powellโs job, for now, looks safe. But with Trump, the only certainty is uncertainty. Stay tuned! ๐งจ๐
